This standalone Class B system transmits your vessel’s identity and position data while receiving that of other AIS-equipped vessels, enabling better anti-collision maneuver planning in high-traffic areas. Positioned as an economical alternative to Class A systems, the NAIS-500 is ideal for recreational boats and small commercial vessels, offering transmission power and reporting rate tailored to their specific needs.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eConnectivity and System Integration\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    The NAIS-500 features versatile connectivity, integrating NMEA 2000 (LEN=1), two NMEA 0183 ports (one high-speed at 38,400 baud for chartplotters and one low-speed at 4,800 baud for other equipment), and a USB port (mini-B) for connection to a PC or Mac. This flexibility ensures seamless integration with Navico ecosystems, including Simrad multifunction displays (NSS, NSO, GO series), Lowrance (HDS Carbon, HDS Gen3), and B\u0026G (Vulcan, Zeus series). The integrated NMEA 0183 multiplexing function optimizes data management across serial ports. The transponder is supplied with a multipole accessory cable for power (9.6 V – 31.2 V DC) and NMEA 0183 connections, as well as an input for an external silent-mode switch. A VHF antenna (SO-239 connector) and an external GPS antenna (SMA connector) are required, with the GPS-500 antenna included.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications and Robustness\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    Measuring 152 x 98 x 52 mm and weighing 260 g, the \u003cstrong\u003eNAIS-500\u003c\/strong\u003e is designed for discreet installation.
